My Lock Screen keeps changing to default

The new iOS 16 update is great, including the fact that you can customize your Lock Screen. I made a new Lock Screen and customized it after I was given a default Lock Screen After the new update. But there I always this recurring issue where the Lock Screen automatically changes to the default Lock Screen After I turn off my phone. There’s no settings I can find that solves this problem and it hasn’t gone away on its own. Can you find out how to solve this problem because it’s starting to annoy me a little.

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 16

Hi TheDamster,

Thanks for posting in Apple Communities.

With your Lock Screen changing after a restart, it could be that you have a specific Focus linked to the Lock Screen and after restarting that would remove the Focus and therefore change your Lock Screen.

To link a Focus to Lock Screen, this can be changed from the Lock Screen.

Touch and hold the Lock Screen until the Customize button appears at the bottom of the screen.

If the Customize button doesn’t appear, touch and hold the Lock Screen again, then enter your passcode.

Tap Focus near the bottom of the wallpaper to see the Focus options—for example, Do Not Disturb, Personal, Sleep, and Work.

Select a Focus, then tap

If this is not related to Focus, delete the Lock Screen and re-create it.

Touch and hold the Lock Screen until the Customize button appears at the bottom of the screen.

If the Customize button doesn’t appear, touch and hold the Lock Screen again, then enter your passcode.

Swipe to go to the Lock Screen you want to delete, swipe up on the screen, then tap .

You can find these and additional steps in Personalize your iPhone Lock Screen.

Regards.
